  Nope turns out it’s nepotism. a sizeable chunk of farmers didn’t learn how to be competitive so they grew big monopolies. This along with the don’t let family farms fail policies has created a system where there is no innovation so wages stagnant but the landowners survive and vote against Thier own interests.

  Actually a good video worth watching at double speed if you’re time crunches

  Wow if they fiddle with FDIC I’d pull my cash out asap if I had an American account.

  Basically if a bank collapses after FDIC gets messed with only the richest will be able to get money back. Average Joe’s will loose everything in the account.

  We saw a bit of this with the silicon valley bank fiasco. That’s with protections in place. Without it good luck buying eggs ever again. It’s going to make bread lines in the soviet union look like a good time.
